After another cold walk through Copenhagen last night I finally managed to get a bike (see picture) today. Since the price for parking in or around the city doubled since last time, it is even more necessary to have a bike in Copenhagen. After checking the good old Kvickly (where we got the bikes last time, and a cheap lock this time) I ended up buying the bike at Bilka onestop in Scandinavia’s largest shopping centre field’s, in the south of Copenhagen.…
btw since this is a weblog I will take some more pictures with my webcam in the future… which is concerning the quality a bit like lomography.
About time- and washing machines
Another great day is about to end… and?
After browsing the depths of CERN storage for suitable data I had the possibility to listen to a talk about the GRID. I got to know that dealing with new databases with sizes of not even Petabytes should not create any problems, computing power will never be a problem of non scentist… and that the GRID will never really help normal people :-( like the WWW did…
The I was listening to a (serious) lecture about timetravelling… yeah right timemachines and stuff. I even learned how to build one… jealous? You just need a wormhole (which is OF COURSE not a black hole) and an appropriate neutron star or if you prefer a black, at least sth very heavy. Bring it in the right position (look at picture, it’s selfexplaining) and of you go…
After all that leading edge science I felt a bit overqualified for my next mission…
The Vasketeria… not a place to eat, it’s a laundrette!
The place to meet people… bullshit!
The only one I met was a fat sweat dripping man, sneezing all the time… and it only cost 5 eur to get almost dry washed clother (please regocnize the irony)…
Starting to feel home…
Great… just before I left Berlin some of our neightbours seemed trying to rebuild the house a bit… they were laying parquet or sth in the middle of the night. It’s just fantastic…
And guess what happened this morning… damn!
Which was especially bad since I came home at about six in the morning and they started at about nine… I’m lovin’ it!
To explain the late return… I was on my first “master-thesis-done-party”.
Which seams to be sth very big over here…
We had great fifty-people-three-course-menu-and-a-lot-of-alcohol-
brought-from-cheap-Germany-drink-as-much-as-you-can-party… I enjoyed it a lot (still not having any alcohol, for those who might ask)… Even though I was feared of the fact, that they might expect me to do a similar one???
Poor little mermaid…
Just right at the WorldWomenDay (08.03.06) the poor little girl sitting and freezing in the harbour of Copenhagen got raped again… This time she got a dildo and a green date stamp.
Poor little girl!
For all german readers, here’s more
New home at Kollegiegården
From next month on I’ll be living at Kollegiegården, a dormitory in the north of Copenhagen… not to far from the institute, not to far from the city, cheaper than everything before, most likely cleaner than F.+H.’s and including internet and cable-tv connection. Which means that my phone connection (it’s a landline in Berlin: +493020236449) will always online when I’m “home”. The same is valid for Skype (heimleiterdk) of course.
